Progress

This one is going to be very short i think because i have very little time.

This weekend coming is our first getaway weekend where we will be able to rest, and see the rest of the team. I am excited.

My friend mark hutto arrived yesterday, and i have been teaching him the ways of the african haha. I am glad that he is finally here. He has already challenged me without knowing it.

I almost passed out today in the clinic...I don't know how to describe this lady's hand but it was really bad....I could handle the sight, but it definetly didn't give me a good feeling. The thing is, many times they wait until the last minute to go see the doctor or go to the hospital, and their maladies have become so much worse than they would have been if they came right away.

Today I spoke with Babocar and he agreed to begin reading the gospel of John wih me. I am very excited for that. Please pray for our time together, as I only have about 16 days with him before he goes back to Dakar.

Maambay says thqt he accepts Jn. 14:6 ----read it--- so i think i will start asking some more questions and being a little bit more bold.

Guys, I cannot thank you enough for your messages. Knowing that I am on your hearts gives me joy, and the boosts I need to keep going.

Matthew and Tara, you have been so supportive. Thank you so much. What would i do without you?

Clay, and the rest of the boys in Thailand and at home...I am praying for you.

I would thank everyone individually, but i do not have th time right now. Keep praying and sending messages. THANKS

Thanks for giving time and energy to your blog posts. In our SCBCM office, we have been intentionally praying for you and the others there and our posts help us know how to in a better way. Know we are particularly lifting up Babocar and Maamby. Keep shining the light and sharing the story with them. Hope you have greeted the Charleston team and oriented them some. Give Mark, Andrea, and Misti our best as well.

It sounds like your service is opening some doors to really spark interest in Christ within some of your new friends. I pray that the friends you have made will fall in love with Jesus. Thank you for letting God use you! We are praying for you here at the SCBCM office.
